Weekend came and went just like that in a blink of an eye. Fortunately, last weekend was a blast as my family did a triple birthday celebration – BBQ and Durian Fest. I turned 25 last Friday on 19 June while my cousin and his son turned 30 and 3 on 18 June and 12 June respectively.
For my simple birthday I opted out for a more hmmm… I actually don’t know how to put into words the outfit and look I picked for the day. Why don’t you guys help me out with this one.

Woah!! I’m now two dozen years old. LOL!!! So, I turned 24 on the 19th June (which makes me a GEMINI and PROUD of it!) The day started with a trip to the chiropractor with my mom followed by a well spent day with my dearest Fai.

First of all.. Happy Birthday to Abg Hadi (18 June) and Happy Belated Birthday to his son (my beloved cute little nephew) Haziq which was on 12th of June (last week). Haziq is now 2 years old and my cousin is… Urmmmm…???
Anyways, had a “birthday” thingy in the office during lunch and here are some pathetic pictures of me cutting the quite delicious Pandan Kaya cake from Bengawan Solo.

Recently, we celebrated my mom’s 5oth Birthday. This year, since I’m on tight budget (I’ve already spent nearly $300 for my cousin’s upcoming wedding) I decided to just get my mom a cake sans the gifts. Instead of typically heading to Prima Deli, Angie’s Choice or Secret Recipe to get the cake, I went to AWFULLY CHOCOLATE. Yeaps! You read it right. AWFULLY CHOCOLATE.
I ventured out to Katong Mall together with Fairoz for the first time (YES!! It was our first time to Katong Mall) to get the cake. The cake shop looked so simple and bare that at first, I thought there was no more cakes available or I should have made an order over the phone or something. The young salesgirl who served us however said that there was no need and there was cake available for immediate take away. I was delighted at the thought that I will not reach home empty handed.
There are alcoholic and non alcoholic cakes available at the shop and obviously we picked the non alcoholic cake. Now, between the non alcoholic cakes, there are 2 flavours. Chocolate Banana and All Chocolate.

This got me deliberating over what flavour to choose for quite awhile. I’ve tried Chocolate Banana and I think it has an acquired unique taste which I totally think my mom would fall in love with. On the other hand, I’ve not tried the All Chocolate and since my mom is a certified CHOCOLATE LOVER, this was the perfect cake for her. My only concern about the All Chocolate was that its too rich and thick in chocolate that after just one slice you will begin to loathe it. Well.. Fortunately for me, Fai and the salesgirl helped me in my dilemma. I end up walking home with the All Chocolate.
My mom’s 6 inch All Chocolate birthday cake cost me only S$25.80 whereas the Chocolate Banana of the same size is S$28.20. A pretty good deal for a cake that looks devilishly delicious. On top of that, the All Chocolate cake is light, delicious and addictive.
